It's good that you have narrowed down how you like to learn or how you learn best.
As for resources, I'm not too sure. Here are a few thoughts.
Find a book with good reviews regarding this topic. In some books you start a project in chapter X and you work on it for the next N chapters.
There are some resources listed here
https://coderanch.com/c/books which
may help you out. Then again they may not.
Kaggle.com, may not be the best place to start, but it's a free place to start. All you need is an email address and a password to create an account
They have free data sets, free tutorials and free competitions.
Maybe there is a free learn at your own pace on Udacity, I know that there are some free learn at your own pace courses on Udacity, but that is about all I know.
While "
Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning" can go hand in hand they can also be separated.
I know for instance that SAP HANA (used for big data sets) has a number of
machine learning functions which are intended to be used via and SQL like language and
Java and JavaScript.
However this may have nothing to do with
artificial intelligence.
There may some Machine Learning and/or Artificial Intelligence libraries which can be used with Hadoop. And Hadoop plays rather nicely with Java, so maybe this could be your way in?
Were you able to find out what Artificial Intelligence or Machine Learning means to you? These are still rather abstract concepts and they can mean different things to different people.
As far as actual projects? Well here are a few off the top of my head:
the game of checkers or chessfood/item classifications systemcomputer AI bots for games like Halo, Quakeface/intruder recognition systemstraffic (air, sea, road) analysis systemsrecommendation engines like Amazon's "if you like this book then how about that book?"cold and flu virus predictions/tracking for your country/state and the world.vehicle/automotive maintenance predictions/tracking
Some of these could be easier then others and some may need data sets which are not easy to come by.
Hope this helps out and this is about the extent of my knowledge on this topic.
